Lonely Planet review

Witch's Hat is something out of a fairy tale. The 1897 building could be mistaken for a gingerbread house, and the witch's hat (an Edwardian turret) stands proudly out the front, beckoning the curious to step inside. Dorms are light and uncommonly spacious, and there's a red-brick barbecue area out the back. To get here, head north along William St, turn left at Brisbane St and then right onto Palmerston St.
